Definitely me too

I feel like I'm putting his black son through college with my views

I haven't been bienge watching CD for 2 days...

I don't feel called out at all

Yes, we can all agree that such is not the case

Dude. Tell me about it. I've had this account for almost 10 years and only recently found the Captain. And now I've binge watched all of his content. Love with your heart, and use your head for everything else!

Same! Got the Escherian Stairwell video recommended, been bringing the rest. Glad KZfaq's come around.

My thinkig was simular 😅

if you regret it didnt happen back then then why are you still not subscribed to him lol

same here.

I don't know who Mark Rober is, but I watched something and somehow it recommended me a CD video out of the 100 subs I have (which is bad news for the channels that it replaced) and now I'm hooked. Love this channel, concerned that this video got 1k dislikes though, I don't think people got the humor.

same journey

I saw him in an electroBOOM video. The algorithm DOES hate him. With all the 3d modeling, vfx and animation videos I've watched it's ridiculous that this guy was never in my recommendations

T1J I’ve clicked it for a lot

I think he's less outright supporting it and saying "It's a necessary evil with the absolute deluge of content that KZfaq has to put up with nowadays." No algorithm is perfect, but if you think about it holistically, it doesn't really do a bad job. The website has grown a lot since its inception.

@@CrizzyEyes still calling the way it is necessary is a stretch since the algorithm punishes you for not stretching your vids to 10 minutes and for getting demonotized, and we all know how easy it is to be demonotized on KZfaq

@@spookson5679 Yeah, like I said it isn't perfect. Some of the parameters are designed to get KZfaq more overall ad revenue by promoting specific videos over others. However AN ALGORITHM is necessary due to the sheer volume of content, for the same reason that search engines have algorithms. You simply would not be able to find videos otherwise. It is flawed, but still blamed too frequently for inadequacies in the uploader's content.

@@spookson5679 it doesn't punish you for not extended your videos to be 10 minutes or more though... the only reason channels try to extend their videos is because after you hit 10 minutes, you are allowed to add mid-roll ads.

@@trickytreyperfected1482 I haven't studied it myself, but I was under the impression that it was a known fact that Google prioritised longer videos so that they are able to better monetise the content they serve. What's your source if it's not true?

it is true that it is unbelievably naïve to think that a platform as big as youtube can function without something like that, though youtube seriously does make a lot of stupid decisions related to it

A good one at that. Only bit I disagreed with was pointing out the bell as even with that I'd regularly miss out on creators uploads. That hasn't been a problem for a long, long time now though.

@@TheDemocrab Oh I still definitely have that problem, even some vids don't show up in the subscriptions tab. But it's definitely better than it has been. Actually, KZfaq notifications reliability might be one of the only things that's actually improved during Susan's reign of doom XD Hopefully the next guy won't fu- What's that? He's removing even more features and the dislike button removal thing was HIS idea? Oh... Oh no. OH NO.

I know this is old but I think the bigger point is that it's not just as simple as "algorithm change??", because it is very much true tastes change and things go in and out of popularity. and on top of that, it was the algorithm that made a lot of these channels popular in the first place. essentially, the argument then becomes "the algorithm should never change."

And now they’ve removed the dislike button, run double preroll ads, removed the indicators for mid roll ads, and tried to stop people from using adblockers. I just wish that KZfaq stayed the way it was when this video was made. It wasn’t perfect, but these recent changes...

Krin Szok Yes!!! that's what I want too. I hope he does it

He won't be reviewing the Circret bracelet thing because I'm sure he hasn't got it yet. Or at least the Cicret website has been making a lot of edits recently, pushing and pushing dates forward. They even removed the calendar altogether and any references to a plausible delivery date were also omited. It only says now "PRE-ORDERS OF THE CICRET BRACELET WILL OPEN EARLY 2017." What "early 2017" actually means is up to them, because they have the right to arbitrarily set any dates as they find it convenient, in the hopes the internet will forget. *But the internet never forgets.*

Ab Sáyago The internet might forgive, but it NEVER forgets

Hey, you were half right. *high five*

Meowfy it was a great video, I hope those cheaters either get caught or tell the truth

Hello Travellers

My gerd Pikapetey. Fancy seeing your name here. Really love your animations

what are you doing here? werent you taking a spa in a pokecentre?

Every time I see you on a video I just imagine how adorable pikachus are

I'm reading this comment in 2018, I can see what he did that year now.

That's all I saw too...

@@jabbra1837 All I saw was the pokémon art on the side of the airplane Like, why can't _I_ have an airplane with really cute pokémon art on the side? -wait I don't have an airplane in the first place-

Anal owy soorrry dont ban me swetty

I saw Ana Damn her sleep dart...

Who’s ready for the anal plane? If the plane has a threat on board is it an anal emergency? If someone gets run over by the plane, is that a death by anal? When the plane gets cleaned, its an anal cleaning. If the plane crashes into a building, then its ana| destruction. If Amelia Earhart flew it, she would be the first person to fly a 747. And probably the fastest person at the time period. If she didn’t crash it from not knowing how to fly a modern airplane. She might figure it out though, she was a pretty awesome person. ANAL

2019 long haul finally paying off.

Same here. He's kind of a douchebag, but I like him.

i discovered this channel from an cross video. Now i watched 3/2 of his videos in one day

@@chadd990 He's kind of a douchebag, *therefore I like him.

@@surelock3221 Ok, I admit that it is part of his appeal, but it isn't the only reason I like him.

I have been watching YT since before Google screwed it and only found CD today. Wasted too many years.

Except that wasn't the issue. The problem was that KZfaq started secretly cutting videos outof peoples' subscription feeds so there was no way to see all the videos from your subscribed channels. While that was happening, the only way to stay up to date was the activate the bell.

@@SgtLion ive never used the subscription feed lol. Do people really go there?

SgtLion I have never get that problem tbh. Why would they secretly cutting? That’s like a waste of time for them

@@SgtLion Or maybe its the the concerned youtuber's content being not so nice for their subscription feeds? I keep seeing the claims but never the sources

I'd rather just get my subscriptions. All of them. If I subscribe to 600 channels, I want 600 channels' worth of content.

If anything you should have to opt out or something,m oh well I havent been affected or noticed any stuff yet.

TheTundraTerror well, I've never clicked the bell, as I don't want a notification when someone I subscribed to has uploaded. I still get all of the videos from everyone I am subscribed to in my subscription feed.

But the subscribe button does *exactly* that. All the new videos for all the channels you subscribe to still show up in your subscriptions tab, just as they've always done. A lot of the recent drama has seemingly confused a lot of people about how all the subscriptions stuff works, but this is functionality that never changed. If you want to see new videos from the channels you *subscribe* to, check your *subscriptions* tab.

What do you want? Some sort of tab that lets you see every upload from everyone you are subscribed to, that exists currently and has for as long as I have been on KZfaq? Like that will ever happen...

@OP For the button next to the subscribe button, it doesn't actually alert people until hours after videos are uploaded for certain channels, as if there's some sort of vetting process going on for those certain channels.

I checked your channel subs and you are NOT subscribed to him. What the heck?!

And I keep getting unsubbed from him and resubbed to channels I unsubbed long ago...

better if didn't have to see that stupid painted face

Lol cicret

Kylo Ren me too! But as Puddles the Sad Clown said "it only took me 25 years to become instantly famous."

I also did the same. just last weekend. I split it in half and did it in two sittings

I am literally in the process of doing that right now.

Takes about four hours, if you read comments that is.

It's 2022 and he already has over 2.3 million subscribers now! Finally. Every video has over a million views pretty sure.

Lol I do that way too often on a lot of videos. Usually, it's fine because I actually end up enjoying the video, but it's a bad habit. Of course, if I _do_ enjoy the video and give it a like, I always refresh the page when I'm done watching just to make sure my like is still there. Is that weird?

That kind of goes against the entire premise of his channel, but it's nice you enjoy it.

roguishpaladin Whatever gave you that idea?

Yeah. I'm really disappointed. I tried before to point out when he was being an asshole in the comments. But now he's decided to do it as part of his videos. I've actually clicked that bell--to remove him from the list of subscriptions I get by email. If he's gonna be an asshole, I'm not gonna watch his shit.

ZipplyZane wat?

Because he refuses to "use his head for everything else" and figure out how it works. He'd rather just mock everyone else who is trying to figure it out.

ZipplyZane I think it's clear by looking at what is popular that you'd have to market down to 5-15yr olds and simplify your content. You'd appreciate he's got more talent than that so is doing the respectable thing and keeping to his own style.

SkandiaAUS Bullshit. CGP Grey is far more popular. He doesn't dumb things down, and he releases even less content than CD. Numberphile is more popular. It produces some pretty high level math. Various other educational channels are huge. I'm not saying he has to actually do the work to figure out how the algorithm works. But, since he hasn't, he has no right to make fun of those who have.

Listen, all is not as it seems, Numberphile and CGP Grey have that extremely goofy factor to their videos, which as SkandiaAUS mentioned attracts small children. Why does this matter, you may ask? Well, there's this cahanell called forgotten weapons that has about 370 000+ K subscribers, he's monthly patreon subscribers give him about 5 000 US dollars I think. Now, I know many channels that are 3x as larger in subscriber base and they can barely reach that amount of money with their patreon supporters. Since all of their subscribers are dumb little poor(literaly) kids that can't afford or just won't care for financial situation of their youtuber. There's also the fact that adults are subsribed to a lot less channels and those channels are more of a serious nature, and hence they can watch every single video out there that is put out there by their youtuber and even support it financially. So sometimes it's not just about the number of subscribers it's about their quality. Oh look, CD's subscribers give him also 5K per month, that sure allows him to do his job at his own pace, so his situation isn't that critical, is it?

He doesn't upload weekly/daily, since his videos take a long ass time to make since they're such high quality, so he has less views overall, and less subscribers. At least that's how that seems to work.

The last ever Cicret blog post was March 4th, 2018 saying they just need $2m and they can go to the next phase

Sidney Law exactly. This is one of a kind. Other KZfaqrs talk about the algorithm directly and sometimes seriously. CD was able to combine it with actual content. I really can’t imagine the amount of work he put into writing the script and everything. I’m glad his Patreon is at least successful enough to sustain his work. I don’t know when KZfaq’s gonna start recommending his videos, I know so many people who would enjoy these but they just never heard of it before I sending the link directly to them

I loved it! Would I say it's a good movie? Not objectively, no, but subjectively I had a lot of fun and it was definitely time well-spent.

a slight bit? ok...

Also, your thumbail didn't have enough boobs! I was so outraged I forgot to add this highly important point!

ZipplyZane Based on Game Theory's previous content, as well as the channel's central idea that what they present is only a theory (and not in a scientific sense), I struggle to see how they would be a reeputable source for this type of information.

ZipplyZane the sub boxes on this site have been broken for the past four years. Literally everything else people are talking about is whining and complaining because KZfaq stopped pushing viewers their way

ZipplyZane If your argument is "go watch an entertainment channel that pulls shit straight from its ass" you can be safely ignored. The only people who should take Game Theory as any sort of serious authority are the ones who also believe tinfoil can stop government satellites from reading your thoughts.
